2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

Biyombo is barely better than Udoh, and if that’s all we have if Rudy goes down then it’s game over. Charlottes pick is likely protected and they’re likely playoff team. Favors is a giant expiring-you might not think that has value but go ask the Clippers, Lakers, Philly,New York, Dallas, and the rest of the league if it’s valuable.

The bolded area is exactly what I was talking about. Use Favors' contract to get something for now or later. Charlotte was just an example.
 
You do know that Conley will eat up 1/3 our cap for the next 2.5 seasons? While costing us assets. He is a slight upgrade over Rubio. We dont even need another guard to take the ball out of DM's hands. The trade makes zero sense.

All for a guy who has never been an allstar. Shoots 43%. Has never had a 40+ pt game or 15+assist game
Ok. Good argument against Conley. If you were paying attention I'm already on record against dumping all our assets for Conley. But it's the contrast of being against Conley but for Parker that is asinine. Parker is the anthesis of a Jazz player and at least Conley is a proven commodity.

Ahh my bad , the snowpocalypse has me stuck at the airport with no WiFi. If you’re saying a bad contract is worth taking on a Conley (who is his own bad contract) or either Harris who are obviously upgrades than I agree
 
Just give the Clippers Thabo and a 1st for Lou Will. There is no reason for the Clippers to want to hold on to Lou Will after trading Harris. They aren't making the playoffs. They have a TON of young guards (SGA, Robinson, Shamet, Thornwell, etc). AND they are now in asset acquisition mode. They are gathering assets and cap space to try and trade for and/or sign stars. Thabo and a 1st for Lou Will gives them what they want.

And the Jazz get the shot creation and scoring they desperately need... FOR CHEAP. 8 mill a year.
